There are a large number of file sharing solutions out there. We do not use services like Dropbox and Box because they do not meet our document security requirements. Some clients use Sharepoint to host documents and share them with external organizations. I find the interface …
Chose HighQ
I feel that HighQ does not really have any real competition in this space because it simply accomplishes its goals far better than the competition at lower cost, while requiring less training and administration.
Trimble ProjectSight
Chose Trimble ProjectSight
I have only used procore otherwise, and from what I remember Procore does not have as many features in terms of keeping track of CD documents, and organizing RFI's like Trimble does. I think overall Trimble ProjectSight (Prolog) is a better product, and if it was up to me I …
Chose Trimble ProjectSight
Trimble ProjectSight (Prolog) is very well suited for general contractors and large projects. Procore is better suited to individual specification use.
Chose Trimble ProjectSight
procore is what I currently use. It is good, they are both efficient and very good products. They both have their flaws, but they do what they are there to do and in a smart manner. Great way to effectively distribute and have all information readily available in your hand at …

Well suited for Extranets where: Sites where lots of documents will be shared Where workflows need to be defined and tracked Sites where complex permissions are required Sites that need to be accessible by anyone with Internet access Sites that require several different functionalities, such as wikis, calendars, task assignment, etc. Not well suited: Where integration with existing on-prem databases is required. Sites with complex or extensive workflows.

Pros
  • Document sharing. This product makes it easy to upload, review and organize documents related to a particular project or matter.
  • Permissions. Collaborate allows very granular permissions to be assigned for shared documents and administrative activities such as workflows.
  • Reliability. The product is cloud-based and rarely, if ever, unavailable.

  • Keeps log of most recent CD documents
  • Allows marking up of PDFs
  • Notifies you if you have an outstanding item

Cons
  • It is just not that exciting. We host documents on there for clients but the extranet sites have ultimately turned out to not be a product that our clients are clamoring for or that we are regularly pushing.

  • A lot of steps, tad confusing
  • Very in-depth, not necessarily a con, but requires a lot of information

Support Rating
The interface is easy to use and overall the software seems pretty robust (I haven't had any crashes yet), so I haven't had to use the support very often. Likewise, I don't think I've ever had a client e-mail me with questions or issues - the software is pretty idiot-proof.

There are a large number of file sharing solutions out there. We do not use services like Dropbox and Box because they do not meet our document security requirements. Some clients use Sharepoint to host documents and share them with external organizations. I find the interface clunky and overall harder to use. For one-off requests, we use have a "Secure File Transfer" service (it seems to be a whitebox solution that we slap our logo on, so I'm not sure which software it actually is). That works well for one-off requests but does not have many of the key features that HighQ Collaborate does for long term document sharing.

Return on Investment
  • Positive ROI for both us and the clients from reducing the number of one-off requests for access to documents.
  • Negative ROI because it is not software that has taken off in our organization.
